I went to the Apopka - Manatee football game tonight. It was the 8A semi-finals. Apopka has a offensive tackle that is rated number one in the nation for his position. I was talking to a local F$U fan and he said he is going to commit to the gators. He has family in Gainesville and the family has made the decision.

I sure hope he sticks with it and arrives on campus ready to play. We will need him and need him right now.

You haven't been following recruiting much, have you? Ivey is a MUST for this class!

Not sure why an FSU fan would have any knowledge. It's between us and Auburn for Ivey. He's already said he would have already committed to us if not for our season last year.

He'll definitely get to contribute early, no doubt. Any kid that has the size, skill, and that's an OL'men should take a hard look at UF. New coach and possible early playing time.

And yes Bayer.....remember the Great Wall. Probably the best OL that UF has ever had.

If I remember correctly, every one of them were members of the 500 club, were they not?

Anyone know if Ivey is an early enrollee?
I've found several articles about Ivey and teammates mentioning the teammate as an EE. I guess the negative inference is no, with limited confidence.

We are absolutely against the wire for EEs. The kids will have to be in school in a few weeks and we have the dead period.

I wouldn't expect much, even though it obviously would be critical for us to try to get any freshmen OL in here for spring ball.

Don't forget the Berlin Wall that came in with Brock. :hehehe:
